Configured for Jeep Comanche MJ trucks equipped with the Chrysler 8.25 rear axle. Includes u-bolts sized at 3" wide to fit the Chrysler 8.25 axle housing. Measure your existing u-bolt I.D. or axle diameter to confirm fitment before ordering.

Overview

This 2-inch lift kit from BDS Suspension is designed to improve the stance, performance, and capability of the 1986–1991 Jeep Comanche MJ. The kit provides clearance for up to 30-inch tires and includes all components necessary for installation. Up front, ProRide coil springs deliver the correct lift height with a smooth, predictable ride. Out back, a long thin add-a-leaf increases rear height without creating a harsh ride. Shocks are specially tuned for this application to complement the spring rates and improve overall damper performance.

Important Notes

The Jeep Comanche was produced with two different rear axles (Chrysler 8.25 or Dana 35). You will need to measure your rear u-bolts to ensure that you get the correct new u-bolts. Basically, just measure the diameter of the axle or the I.D. of your rear u-bolts. Chrysler axles require 3" wide u-bolts and Dana 35 axles require 2-3/4" wide u-bolts. Some 1987–1990 models came with a Dana 44 — measure and call BDS for proper u-bolt fitment.
